<p><em>Owen Clegg, Class of 1996</em><br />
<em>Journalist, BBC World Service</em></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0;">It was a joy to attend the Liberal Arts College, which offered me a first-rate education in an inspiring and nurturing environment. The course was not only a solid foundation for my later studies and professional career, but continues to help me make sense of our tumultuous world through a prism shaped by the philosophy, art and literature of our Western culture. The ideas and themes explored in the College are always there to remind me where we come from and why we our society takes the decisions it does. Great teachers, great classmates, wonderful memories. </p>
